用故事屋鼓励孩子们进行建筑和设计交流
Storytelling Igloo encourages children to interact with architecture and design

伦敦工作室Aberrant Architecture已经与伦敦北部的五所学校合作创建一个冰屋形状的装置，这是伦敦基础教育设施，主要向年轻人介绍建筑及其设计。

故事屋项目是该工作室与当地艺术中心Artsdepot合作进行。通过3D计算机建模软件和数控模具，共有140名8〜14岁的孩子参与设计。

London-based practice Aberrant Architecture has worked with five north London schools to create an igloo-shaped installation, as part of an initiative to introduce young people to architecture and design.
The Storytelling Igloo project was carried out in collaboration with local arts centre Artsdepot. It saw 140 children between the ages of eight and 14 get involved in building and designing the structure using 3D computer modelling software and CNC moulds.

在这个过程中，建筑师鼓励孩子们探索空间的意义，以及学习建筑和设计实践所必需的创造能力和技术知识。

首先，鼓励学生在纸上绘制与自己的身份和空间感受相关的想法，然后将这些想法通过手工模型来表达。

During the process, the children were encouraged to explore ideas of what it means for a space to be meaningful, as well as learning creative and technical skills necessary to architecture and design practice.
To begin with, the students were encouraged to draw ideas relating to their own identity and sense space on pieces of paper, which were then hand-modelled into prototypes.

建筑师说：“该项目适合所有不同年龄、背景和认知能力的学生，因为这些关于娱乐、安全、休闲和个人偏好空间的问题十分普遍。”

他们继续说：“这个过程使孩子们能够比较手工建模和数字3D打印的不同，让他们充分感受手工制作的趣味性。”

"Students of all ages, backgrounds and abilities could relate to universal questions about spaces of pleasure, security, leisure and individual preference," said the architects.
"This process allowed children to compare the relative ease of 'modelling' three-dimensional forms by hand as opposed to digital translations," they continued.

每个定制设计都使用三维建模软件进行建模，然后再结合使用数控模拟模具，这种模具是该工作室与威斯敏斯特大学制造实验室（University of Westminster Fabrication Laboratory）合作生产。

建筑师们使用废纸和粘合剂制成主要的搭建材料，即纸质混凝土，然后通过加工将其制作成砖块的形态。

Each bespoke design was then modelled using three-dimensional modelling software, before being transferred into CNC modelled moulds, which were produced in collaboration with the University of Westminster Fabrication Laboratory.
The architects then used papercrete – a construction material made from recycled paper and adhesives – to form the bricks themselves.

“年轻人常常认为复杂的计算技术总是让事情变得更容易，虽然这个过程中能使他们能够更好体验手工工艺。”

粉红色、紫色、黄色、绿色和蓝色五种不同色彩分别代表不同学校，这些色彩堆积成五颜六色的装置。

"Young people are often made to assume that sophisticated computational technology always makes things easier, but this part of the process allowed them to experience the more immediate and intuitive possibilities of hand-craft," said the team.
Each of the five schools was assigned an individual colour – pink, purple, yellow, green and blue – which were used to create variation amongst the 300 bricks.

一些成品砖和梁添加了粘土装饰物，这些砖石与梁的名称都来源于每个参与该项目的学校，这样让每位小建筑师都拥有属于自己的作品。

这些砖块每块都具有独立的编号，并有着标签，然后会交由志愿者团队进行接下来的工作，这些志愿者主要是The Cass and Artsdepot的毕业生。

Clay ornaments were added to some of the finished bricks and lintels were customised with the names of each participating school, as a way of  "enabling the young builders to take ownership" of their work.
Each brick was then numbered and labelled before they were assembled by a team of volunteers including graduates from The Cass and Artsdepot staff.

Aberrant Architecture联合创始人David Chambers表示：“我们很高兴能够与我们的青年、学校和社区进行合作和研究。在文化资金受限的情况下，与新一代分享技能和传授建筑和设计创意流程十分重要。”

"We are pleased to build on our experience and research working with young people, with schools and the wider school community," said David Chambers, co-founder of Aberrant Architecture.
"At a time when cultural funding is under threat, it is great to be able to share skills and impart the importance of creative processes in architecture and design with a new generation," he continued.

2017年12月13日至31日，这座“故事屋”在伦敦Artsdepot的Apthorp画廊展出。

Aberrant Architecture于2010年由David Chambers和Kevin Haley创立。该工作室已经完成了一系列建筑项目和艺术装置，其作品既有聚苯乙烯泡沫天花板，也有伦敦滑铁卢的一个小型移动表演场地。

The Storytelling Igloo was on view at a free exhibition in the Apthorp Gallery at London's Artsdepot from 13 to 31 December 2017.
Aberrant Architecture was founded by David Chambers and Kevin Haley in 2010. Since then, the studio has completed a range of architectural projects and installations – from a styrofoam ceiling installation celebrating time-wasting at work, to a tiny mobile performance venue that toured around London's Waterloo.
